A think this song is a mix of a feeling and a specific memory. Where he says "the cat walks a plank" is a specific memory he has while he's faded and is a distinctive thing he remembers from a mostly forgotten night.
This songs vibe is so much sadder with the original music. The lyrics make more sense when sung with the original instrumentation. The production of the album completely flushed out the sense of listless nostalgia that it could have had.
Dope in the wash, strangers in bed Dead-end nights, they make a heart beat half dead In the mirror, striking a pose Conjured up glamour in a school play rock show Guess it doesn't last forever, just a feeling to remember Dope on a rope we hang, the cat walks the plank Unless we turn around, and do it again Generations change In a blink the fad's extinct Find your lover or you'll flash the fame Before you wake up from your dream Everything changes when When the last call lights shine Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times Everything changes when When the last call lights shine Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times Collect taxidermy fist As much is on your wrist New friends flood the list till you're sick Trying to have a ball in a tanked up stall Numb when its from making sense of it all I guess it doesn't last forever Just the feeling to remember Dope on a rope we hang, the cat walks the plank Unless we turn around, and do it again Generations change In a blink, the fad's extinct Find your lover or you'll taste the fame Before you wake up from your dream Everything changes when When the last call lights shine Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times Everything changes when When the last call lights shine Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times
I wanna hug you, modern bummers..thank you for making everything that was broken be perfect again.. Lets pretend the record never happened and let's listen to the magic of the stripped down versions. Everything is alright now...
Went to their show in DC. I was initially kinda bummed bc I was looking forward to hearing their old stuff, but their new songs were great to hear. This song in particular was the most memorable and fun to see
brooo. i heard the acoustic version first. i loved it but the studio version is what's teally written in stone and I loved it more. them synth's doe. idk if you ever heard of sticky finger's but this almost made album of the year for me. dope on a rope stuidio style is pretty coooooo tooooo fooooooo
thank u for posting these. so genuine. so pure. i love the strokes, but i dont like that julian is stripping them of what they used to be. but of course, artists must experiment to grow, and you can tell that they are getting big with this album. im proud.

It sounds like the last summer before growing up.
too true. now im sad and nostalgic while listening
Dudeeeeeeeeee
It’s the last summer before I grow up, I’m terrified
This is like 100 times better than the original, I swear.
mmm idk the original is still pretty fire, great song to dance to
no its not
@@headshart1362 yes it is
Agreed
Their writing gets better and better with each album.
I love the way Matt sounds on acoustic

Dope in the wash, strangers in bed
Dead-end nights, they make a heart beat half dead
In the mirror, striking a pose
Conjured up glamour in a school play rock show
Guess it doesn't last forever, just a feeling to remember
Dope on a rope we hang, the cat walks the plank
Unless we turn around, and do it again
Generations change
In a blink the fad's extinct
Find your lover or you'll flash the fame
Before you wake up from your dream
Everything changes when
When the last call lights shine
Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times
Everything changes when
When the last call lights shine
Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times
Collect taxidermy fist
As much is on your wrist
New friends flood the list till you're sick
Trying to have a ball in a tanked up stall
Numb when its from making sense of it all
I guess it doesn't last forever
Just the feeling to remember
Dope on a rope we hang, the cat walks the plank
Unless we turn around, and do it again
Generations change
In a blink, the fad's extinct
Find your lover or you'll taste the fame
Before you wake up from your dream
Everything changes when
When the last call lights shine
Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times
Everything changes when
When the last call lights shine
Seizing the heartbeat of our lovely reckless times
find your lover or you taste the pain
shukran for the lyrics habibi
They should release a live album
Hell yeah
Some of my favorites are their newer live shows. Mama said, lonely this Christmas, when you were made(best version), this song. All amazing live
Casablancas has produced the mongrel out of the Growlers sound. No mongrel, no Growlers as we know and love them. Thank you Mr Bummer I am saved.
where’s my lil indie girl to fall in love listening to these songs 🤍😭
I wanna hug you, modern bummers..thank you for making everything that was broken be perfect again.. Lets pretend the record never happened and let's listen to the magic of the stripped down versions. Everything is alright now...
atarikeiko I'll be posting some of their older unreleased songs in the near future, so look out for that!
atarikeiko I'm with you on that. we are saved.
One of those bitter/sweet songs. I just got into the growlers idk how i heard this song but it hooked me instantly
Dude..SO incredible! Just warm fuzzies all over..
This sounds like the last Summer of one's youth.
I was mourning The Growlers until I heard this... there's still hope.
I have to say i love most everything they've done.. my favorite band by far :)
This is the true growlers ... This is the true City Club ...
That background is sick. I want that on a shirt
Ethan Worthington I was selling shirts at some point but got asked to stop. I also gave away pins at beach goth with these designs.
Modern Bummers asked by who?
Modern Bummers Anyway you can send the designs you used? Would love to make a shirt.
And sure, email me. Somethingsomeonejr21@gmail.com
Do you still do the shirts?
Gonna cry my eyes out now
It's Haunting ...
Went to their show in DC. I was initially kinda bummed bc I was looking forward to hearing their old stuff, but their new songs were great to hear. This song in particular was the most memorable and fun to see
THANK YOU. I just missed the live stream and really wanted to hear these new ones
Last song is still being uploaded, so watch out for it. Should be done soon
Awesome!

Listened to this song maybe 1000 times but “find your lover or your taste in pain” cut so deep this time.
if only AMERICA could hear this. we need a revolution
Are you happy now?

goodbye scott:,(
How i love this song you don't realize
Idk where I heard this but it just popped in my head
been balling to this song
I hope the studio version sounds just as good if not better this is so far my favorite from city club. So goood
sorry but.. this is so much better than studio version
to me the studio is better. almost made me cry lol heard this first of course but the upbeat is undeniably good.
diRTyNeEcH when you were made live acoustic might just make you cry.
brooo. i heard the acoustic version first. i loved it but the studio version is what's teally written in stone and I loved it more. them synth's doe. idk if you ever heard of sticky finger's but this almost made album of the year for me. dope on a rope stuidio style is pretty coooooo tooooo fooooooo
WasarakaWH I def liked this version better, world unglued was my favorite song on the album
thank u for posting these. so genuine. so pure. i love the strokes, but i dont like that julian is stripping them of what they used to be. but of course, artists must experiment to grow, and you can tell that they are getting big with this album. im proud.
